Homemade macaroons (sweet rolls)

ingredients

300 g plain flour 300 g semi-coarse flour 120 g granulated sugar 1 packet vanilla sugar 1/2 KL salt 270 ml lukewarm milk 1/2 cube fresh yeast 1 KL granulated sugar 70 g butter 1 pk egg

You still need

1 pk egg to rub a little whole poppy seeds to sprinkle on

step

Blown, dark brown rolls sprinkled with poppy seeds that will make the whole house smell good.

1.

In a large bowl, mix the weighed flour with the sugar, vanilla sugar and salt.

2.

In a smaller bowl, mix the lukewarm milk with the sugar and add the crumbled yeast. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes until the yeast rises.

3.

In the meantime, add the melted butter and the whole egg to the dry ingredients. Finally, add the sourdough starter and work it into a smooth dough by hand. If it is too soft, add a little flour. If it is too dry, add a tablespoon of milk and work again.

4.

Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in volume (60 or 90 minutes).

5.

Press the air out of the risen dough and work it on the work surface for a while. Roll out the dough and divide it into 10 roughly equal loaves.

6.

Roll each loaf into a circle, roll it up, gently fold it into a roll and place it on a baking sheet lined with baking paper.

7.

Let the rolls rise for about 20 to 30 minutes. In the meantime, preheat the oven to 180°C, brush the pastries with beaten egg and sprinkle with poppy seeds.

8.

Bake the poppies in the preheated oven (180°C) for about 20 minutes.

9.

Serve with butter, honey or jam and hot cocoa.
